br
Break the current text flow, resuming at the beginning of the next line.
Usage:
<br> OR <br />
<br clear="left|right|all"> OR <br clear="left|right|all" /> (XHTML)
| Tag Attribute | Used To... |
|---|---|
| clear |
Break the flow and move downward until the desired margin, either
left, right, or all,
is clear. Used most commonly with images that use the align tag.Observation: If for some reason the line-height property value is
less than the font-size value, all text will move under the image as if
no alignment or use of this attribute were specified at all. |
Examples:
<font face="Arial,sans-serif;" size="2" color="#000000" style="font: 10pt Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000;">
<img src="../images/64.gif" width="64" height="58" border="0" alt="Boogeda boogeda boogeda..." title="Boogeda boogeda boogeda..." align="left">
"Right, I think I made my point! Now, I think it's time you took a couple of weeks' holiday."<br>
"How kind," the PFY sighs. "But where will I go?"<br>
"Somewhere where they know nothing about computing...where they wouldn't know a RAM chip from a potato chip!"<br>
"But I don't want to visit Microsoft!" he whines.<br>
</font>
produces
"Right, I think I made my point! Now, I think it's time you took a couple of weeks' holiday."
"How kind," the PFY sighs. "But where will I go?"
"Somewhere where they know nothing about computing...where they wouldn't know a RAM chip from a potato chip!"
"But I don't want to visit Microsoft!" he whines.
Example (with clear="all"):
<p class="fooText">
<img src="../images/64.gif" width="64" height="58" border="0" alt="Boogeda boogeda boogeda..." title="Boogeda boogeda boogeda..." align="left">
"Right, I think I made my point! Now, I think it's time you took a couple of weeks' holiday."<br clear="all">
"How kind," the PFY sighs. "But where will I go?"<br>
"Somewhere where they know nothing about computing...where they wouldn't know a RAM chip from a potato chip!"<br>
"But I don't want to visit Microsoft!" he whines.<br>
</p>

NOTES:
This tag works in all e-mail clients. Good thing too, since Windoze
Live Hotmail does not support the <p> tag.
Ordinarily you would see <br /> used about 99% of the time, but occasionally
<br clear="all" /> is used to start text below an image if only one line of text
was needed aligned with the image instead of wrapping around it like in a newsletter.
